Ram Definition and 79 Threads

If the difference isn't that much, then could a computer theoretically have A HUGE amount of RAM, simply by setting aside a significant portion of the SSD as virtual memory? Maybe a SSD external HD could also be used as virtual memory (for those of us who don't have internal SSD drives yet)

Hi All, i was looking at the IBM PC XT technical reference and it states that the board can take a maximum of 256K of memory. If you look at the schematic you can then see 36 sockets for memory chips and if you see this picture of it...

Problem: Starting co-ordinates S 45° 50.061 E 170° 27.079 A catapult stationed at the above coordinates will hit the castle, if it shoots at maximum range (X meters) at 48ºtrue. Assume equal initial and final elevation for the projectile’s trajectory, and the projectile’s initial velocity is...

If you have a 32 bit processor, does that mean it is useless to have more than 4 GB of RAM, since you wouldn't be able to address those additional locations? So with a 64 bit processor, technically you could buy as much RAM that fills 4 EB (exabytes)? Why does it jump from 32 bits to 64...

I have read up on the ram air/ram jet of NACA times, and how its really only useful at supersonic speeds. my question basically is for clarification because I honestly don't know how to work the math out to really figure out how beneficial it would even be. This pertains to drag racing. I...

Why is Level 1 cache located on the RAM while the others are located between the RAM and the microprocessor ? !

A long time ago, I was once told that too much reliance on databases in programing can create slow programs. Databases provide a nice way to store and organize information but they may not retrieve and write information quickly. Clearly ram is the fastest way to access meomry but the size of ram...

Hi everyone, I am doing a simulation using COMSOL 3.3a... I am using heat transfer module. I have 3 subdomains in my design with sizes in range mm, micrometre and nanometer...the third nanometre block appears just as a line...bt however i was able to give all boundary and subdomain details as i...

First off, this is not school related as my semester just ended and I've just been playing around with my fpga. My problem is that I'm trying to write to the ram module then read from it. I understand a little of the tristate buffer and inout signal but we didn't really go over this in class...

Why, with a 32-bit adress bus , we can only have a maximum of 4 GB RAM memory?

Okay; so here is a screenshot of my PCs (it is a desktop) info. Here is what I want to know: 1) 256 MB is pretty small isn't it? My Macbook has 4GB 2.) Where can I look to see if I can fit more RAM in my PC? I assume that is not the max I can fit? 3.) Assuming I am not 100%...

Sorry for such an easy question LOL.. So.. I need a bit of help, I was thinking of modelling a ram air intake on a car. But it seems like I'm not educated enough.. What I know is: the car goes with 100 km/h speed, the engine consumes 1800 liters of air / minute, and the intake at...

My 5 year old pc has 256MB ram and I would like to buy new ram (because with WinXP it runs very slowly). But I don't know which ram to buy. --- 1) I've installed the program "Everest" and it gives the following information: Motherboard Name: Asus P4S266-VX If i click on SPD Everest shows...

Hey, I am interested in knowing about the insides of a RAM card. I want to know what type of capacitors they use in RAM cards, how are they made and what is the maximum capacitance of these capacitors?... Also what type of transistors they use in the memory cells. How is the data read? I...

I've set up RAM on a bus such that one chip takes the lower nibble and another chip takes the upper nibble of a particular data value at a specific address. Both chips are given the same address, but each one contains only half of the data. I want to call this interleaving, but I'm not sure if...

failed to install dragon naturally speeking 9. Said system does not have enough ram to run dragon you need minimum of 512 ram. Is there a way aroudn this? If not how should I install ram and what should I pay. Hopw do i get out of this situation.

i was reading about pulse jets and ram jets as part of my course on jet propulsion. all i was told was that they are aero-thermo-dynamic-ducts. couldn't understand what they mean. checked google, but the articles i got were vague. could someone explain what aero-thermo-dynamic-ducts are?

Hey guys, Have not posted in a while:biggrin: I found these two computer parts in my basement the other day and i just wanted to confirm whether these are two 64 MB computer RAM parts or not? And how much are they worth? Thanks for any replies:cool: Jake

Data Recover from RAM ?? Is it possible to recover typed data from RAM ?? If so, how? N if possible ... won't the data be erased/overwritten when i boot my computer ? Plz reply. Very urgent! thanx in advance!

Da, Da, Raa, my brand spanking new avatar whatsithingamigig, thank you Evo and MIH. your not so bad after all. :smile: :biggrin:

I have searched high and low for a ram, not the computer ram, an animal ram for my avatar, just a face/head will do, but it will have to fit my character, you know, powerful, pure, good natured, charitable, honest, etc, etc, so anyone seen my avatar ?

Installing more RAM than... Im trying to install 1.5 gb of ram on a computer that the factory says can only handle 1.0 gb. Now, if i try it and it doesn't work then I am out 15% of 93 bucks for a restocking fee (cheap basterds). So I am wondering if anyone has done this before and know someway...

So my friend's dad gave me a bunch of 128 MB Ram sticks and I was wondering if I can just simply replace one of these with the standard 64 MB one that comes with the XBOX. Anyone done something like this before? Jameson

So I've heard that adding RAM is one of the best ways to see a noticeable change in the CPU's performance. I've done some searching and have found deals on Ebay that just seem to good to be true. Offers such as 512 MB RAM for only $30 and such. I know that their are different kinds of RAM, low...

Why is Static RAM faster than Dynamic RAM. Why is it so expensive to manufacture SRAM?

How does ram pressure work, is this the thing that affects meteors?

I've just got my final year project assigned. It has to do with a numerical simulation of a Ram Accelerator device. Well, apart of having doubts, which I will post just here proximately, I would want to know some website to learn more about that type of device. Apart of Google sites...

Thanks to everyone who helped me with the last problem. Now, I'm trying to add 256mb ram into my sony vaio laptop. It currently has 128mb. Question 1) I heard somewhere that if you have 2 sticks of ram in a comp, they have to be exactly the same type, etc. The guy at COMP USA told me...

I recently installed some new ram, a cd burner and a new video card. the card is a GeForce FX 5200. My computer worked flawlessly before this upgrade. Now it is freezing every now and then and it almost always freezes whenever it hibernates. I figured this was a power issue since my old power...
